In this systematic review, advancements in plastic recycling technologies, including mechanical, thermolysis, chemical and biological methods, are examined. Comparisons among recycling technologies have identified current research trends, including a focus on pretreatment technologies for waste materials and the development of new organic chemistry or biological techniques that enable recycling with minimal energy consumption. Existing environmental and economic studies are also compared.

The insect cell-baculovirus expression vector system (IC-BEVS) has been an asset to produce biologics for over 30 years. With the current trend in biotechnology shifting toward process intensification and integration, developing intensified processes such as continuous production is crucial to hold this platform as a suitable alternative to others. However, the implementation of continuous production has been hindered by the lytic nature of this expression system and the process-detrimental virus passage effect.

Background: Laparoscopic-assisted single-port mediastinoscopic esophagectomy is a safe and effective emerging minimally invasive esophagectomy, but little has been reported about the learning curve for this technology. The goal of the study was to determine the number of procedures to achieve different levels of proficiency on the learning curve.
Methods: This study retrospectively analyzed data from consecutive surgeries performed by the same surgeon at the same center from 2016 to 2021.

Background: KRAS-G12C inhibitors mark a notable advancement in targeted cancer therapies, yet identifying predictive biomarkers for treatment efficacy and resistance remains essential for optimizing clinical outcomes.
Methods: This systematic meta-analysis synthesized studies available through September 2024 across PubMed, Cochrane Library, SpringerLink, and Embase. Using CRISPR/Cas9 technology, this study generated cells with KEAP1 and STK11 knockouts, and utilized lentiviral vectors to overexpress PD-L1.

Background Patient safety incident reporting and analysis are often confined to secondary care, despite 95% of dentistry occurring in primary care. Peninsula Dental Social Enterprise (PDSE) delivers primary care dentistry in education-based settings and uses a report-review-action process to underpin its patient safety framework.Aim This article analyses trends in clinical incident data, reflecting on learning to improve overall patient safety.
